A FAITHFUL OFFICER.
COMMUNICATION for Past Services, and
Petition for Their Continuance,

Commentator Ior 1ast Services, and
Petition for Their Continuance.
Probably no city in the Union has to day
Chief of its Fire Department more efii-
Gent or who enjoys the public confidence
in higher degree, than Sacramento. Mr..
Sullivan has occupied this position for
many years, and during his entire period
of service has not, to our knowledge, ever
done an act ia connection with his duties
which could be unfavorably criticised, but
on the contrary his conduct of the Fire
Department has always been the most eff
| cielt and economic and met in every in
stance with warmest approval and COM
nsendation. As his present term is about
to expire, the property owners and bust
ness men of this city, having desire to
! express their appreciation of his services
! in the past, and their unanimous and ur-
/ gent wishes for his continuance in charge
of the fire department have, during tie
| past day or two-witheut the knowledge
ana in the absence of Mr.. Sullivan from
the city-circulated and signed paper ex-
i pressive of these facts, of which the follow
ing is copy:
1 To the Honorable Board Of Fire Commits
sSi0ners Of the CITY Of Sacramento The un-
dersigned, resident taxpayers and under
writers of the city of Sacramento, desiring
to express their appreciation of our local
Fire Department and to Chief Sullivan for
the able and efficient manner with which
the duties deyolving on the Department
| have been conducted under his administra-
ton; and deenling it only proper and
| right at this time. when our citizens are
exerting themselves to reduce taxation and
to induce capital to invest in our city, and
knowing that an efficient and reliable Fire
Department has much to do ia this matter,
and believing that any change in the ad-
ministration of the Department would be
detrimental to the best interests of the
city, we desire to express our faith in the
integrity and ability of Chief Engineer
Con. Sullivan, by most earnestly and re-
spectfully asking your Honorable Board TO
retain him as Chief of the Department:
